FOR BOLSHEVISM No 8 (113) AUGUST 2012

WORKERS OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE! ALL-UNION COMMUNIST PARTY OF BOLSHEVIKS SOCIALIST REVOLUTION FOR BOLSHEVISM INSIDE THE COMMUNIST AND WORKERS’ MOVEMENT --------------------------------------------------------------------- From the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks On the recent flood 11.07.2012 06:34 On the night of July 7, residents of several localities of Krasnodar region were struck blind by a brutal natural disaster. Powerful flooding in the third hour of the night suddenly flooded around 5000 homes in 3 cities – Gelendzhik, Krymsk and Novorossiysk. The system of energy, gas and water supply, road and rail transport, wiped out. According to the latest official figures (at the time-Fb), 171 people had died, 137 people hospitalised, some of whom were children. More than 48,000 people have had their lives destroyed by the flooding. One reason for the catastrophic destruction and death of large numbers of people, we believe lies in the lack of alarm systems in the human settlements. Earlier, in Soviet times, hanging on every street were a number of loudspeakers that were switched on in the middle of radio broadcasts in the event of emergency situations and notified people about the dangers. This system was eliminated under the present day capitalism, and the sleeping people were unaware of what was going on. Capitalism has once again demonstrated its callous, inhuman character. We turn to you, our fellow citizens from the areas affected by the disaster. Many of you have lost your loved ones, lost your home, a nice home and hearth, lost an established way of life. The natural elements did not spare anyone, inflicting on many of you a deep mental wound that may never heal but only constantly bleed. It is impossible to forget the loss incurred, but with time, the pain is dulled. Life goes on. Each of you must find the courage to survive this attack of natural forces and the tragedy that has occurred and try to live on, remembering those who did not return. The Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks offers its my sincere condolences and deepest sympathy to all the families of citizens who are affected by the disaster. The dead also remain in our memories forever. CC AUCPB 10 July 2012. Leningrad -------------------------------------------------------- WE COMMUNISTS, ARE FOR RUSSIA WITHOUT THE BOURGEOISIE! What lies in the "BOLOTNIY PHENOMENON"? Ideology, Economics, Politics About the "Bolotniy" rally on June 12 in Moscow The rally of the "Bolotyniy opposition" in Moscow June 12 was preceded by dramatic events – i.e. searches for a number of prominent organizers and participants of the previous "Bolotniy" rally on May 6 in the framework of investigation into the riots that took place. In the apartment of K.Sobchak, money was found in envelopes amounting to a total of one million euros as well as 480 thousand dollars, and 480 thousand rubles. Yes, Ksenia Sobchak – this for you is not a "small box of photocopied cash," and it was all stashed in envelopes. The government's intention to increase fines and impose other restrictive measures on the law on rallies together with the Administrative Code, brought about broad resonance in the opposition. They made their way quickly and easily through the State Duma and signed by Putin himself. At the rally itself on June 12, these "innovations" were in no way affected. Not without good reason can one consider the campaign around these measures as a well-organized PR stunt, the main goal of which was to attract more people to participate in the rally on June 12. The "March of Millions" started in Moscow at about noon. By one o'clock, the parade participants marched along the boulevards from the "Pushkin" cinema to Prospect Sakharov. According to the State Ministry of Internal Affairs in Moscow, up to 18,000 people took part in the actual march and about 15,000 remained at the rally afterwards. Sergei Udaltsov from the stage declared a figure of around 100 thousand people taking part in the rally, and Ilya Ponomarev - about 200 thousand people. On the Internet, "sounded" out a figure of 500,000. All this sounds very similar to the situation surrounding the estimates in the number of victims of "Stalin's repressions." The "weaklings" cite 3 million victims. The “more solid ones” cite 30 million. And those who are “really in the know”, cite 70 million victims. Who marched in the columns and who was at the rally? Newly appearing at this "March of Millions" was a large number of nationalists, as a rule standing under the "Imperial" flags. Some of them were dressed in paramilitary uniform, styled as the SS. They behaved very aggressively, both on the march and at the rally. Once on one side of Strastniy Boulevard, activists of "Solidarnost" and the nationalists immediately began swearing and cursing. The nationalists shouted that they would not allow the "Orange" to pass through. The Democrats responded by shouting that fascism will not pass. The number of red flags increased where last year there were virtually none at the rallies. Basically these were representatives of various leftist groups and organizations such as "RotFront" (Red Front). There was, of course, a whole range of liberal groups, including "Yabloko", headed by its leadership, and representatives of initiative groups from Moscow State University, Moscow Higher Technical School and other Moscow universities and institutes. But, in general, the "organized" part of the rally was in the minority, thus there was more of the unorganized and dissatisfied. The meeting opened at 2.30 pm with a speech by Evgeny Chirikova. Then coordinator of "Left Front" Sergei Udaltsov went on stage and called for the release of political prisoners and to allow representatives of the audience access to federal TV channels. He proposed that another mass opposition rally be planned for October 7, the birthday of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Udaltsov also proposed the starting up of continuous festivities with demands to release 13 people detained on suspicion of involvement in the riots at Bolotniy Square, and before the next rally - to hold across Russia a political strike and take part in actions. "We are the power!" - shouted Udaltsov, and the crowd happily supported him. Then Boris Nemtsov took to the stage, who was met by very hostile nationalists. The writer Dmitry Bykov demanded the dissolution of the Moscow City Duma and called for fresh elections to it. A speech was made by Sergei Mokhnatkin - a citizen who was detained at Triumph Square and got a prison term. "Greetings from the State Duma deputies temporarily free!" - cried out the deputy Ilya Ponomarev, who stated that he was in two minds as to whether or not to make a speech on stage. "The time for slogans and appeals is going... We need to resolutely move forward! Not only to fight, but to think with our heads. We need a plan, we need to be in power ...". Former Prime Minister Mikhail Kasyanov then got up to speak and said: "In a short while, in only a few months, Putin will be gone. They will leave on their own accord, without the need for a revolution!" And Yavlinsky, leader of “Yabloka” thinks the same as Kasyanov: "We fully recognise that new elections should be held not in 4 or 5 years, but much earlier, and this period will depend on the mood of the people and their relationship to what is happening in the country." Political analyst Dmitry Oreshkin, environmentalist Natalia Znamenskaya, veteran of the opposition Alice Obraztsova, municipal deputy Konstantin Jankauskas, journalist Olga Romanova, and others also spoke at the rally. The meeting participants adopted a "Manifesto of Free Russia." The text of the document was read out from the stage by leading organiser of the rally, Evgeny Chirikov. The main thesis of the Manifesto is "the current government is illegal and must be replaced, using all the possibilities of peaceful mass protest." The responsibility for the preparation and conducting of the protests will be taken on by a Coordinating Council, which will include elected by transparent procedure (that is – between themselves) representatives of political and civil forces. The members of this council are willing to engage in dialogue with some representatives of the political elite, including in a round table format. The adopted document has seven points. The first is the resignation of Vladimir Putin, second - the development of a new law on elections to the Duma, the third - the adoption of this law by the present lower chamber of parliament. The fourth point: the holding of parliamentary elections under the new law. Fifth - put to a referendum a draft new constitution, which would see a reduction of presidential terms of office, and an increase on the powers of parliament. Sixth: the new parliament will adopt the law on presidential elections. The seventh paragraph refers to the fact that the newly elected Parliament shall consider and adopt a law on reforming the courts, prosecution, investigation and police, purging them "from those who have stained themselves with crimes." At the same time, pass a law to facilitate the procedure of holding the referendum. The second part of the rally was musical- political. By that time, around a thousand people remained near the stage, either under umbrellas or soaked to the skin. The rain became a downpour and thunder rumbled in the background. The police were dressed in cloaks with hoods. In the crowd a man appeared in black jeans, white shirt and on stilts. He jumped at them and shouted "Russia", "Putin is our president." The man on stilts was taken away by the police, and he was indignant that they had spoiled the holiday - Russia’s Day, and that he did not know where they were taking him, because he, in fact, lives on Sakharov Avenue. But they still took him away. A group of legal observers were present at the rally. They had not been delegated by anyone but just came along on their own initiative to defend the protesters in the event of a conflict with the law enforcement agencies. The legal observers reported a few minor skirmishes involving mainly nationalists. One observer, Natalia Mankovskaya - a young legal observer from Belarus came to Moscow from Minsk. "Well, what do you think about all this?" – I asked her. "I have never ever seen such an orgy of democracy in my life," - she replied. When one attempts to analyze the essence of all these "Bolotniy" rallies, you at once begin to realise that this just another attempt by them to try to take power in the country into their own hands, i.e. an attempt carry out an "orange" revolution. The means of doing this is by statements of arbitrarily harsh accusations against Putin and his "team", against the law enforcement agencies of Russia and against the legislators. If they are supported by the people, they will become "the opinion of the people" and the "voice of the people - the voice of God!" The participants in the Bolotniy rallies are the extras, the ancient Greek chorus, and by their actions and voices, "making" a "drama" in the attempts by the "Bolotniy" elite to take power. Who are these people, the "Bolotniks" (synonyms: Orange, liberals), what do they really want, what is the essence of their claims, and, most importantly, how do they see the future after "coming to power?" The "Bolotniy leaders" claim the parliamentary and presidential elections are flawed, which means the regime is illegitimate and that means - everything must change. Yes, the elections were rigged in some cases, and yes - hundreds of claims of rigging were filed to the court. So what? Nothing happened! Gurov, of course is a "magician", but he is very far from being a "Bolotnik," and he is very far from what "they want" from his opposition - to rig the votes of tens of millions of voters. Add to this the results of exit polls, and add here all the known results of previous elections over 20 years, clearly showing the dynamics of voter preferences. What do the "Bolotniks" really want? It's very simple - to convince the masses that black is white, and white is black. This is done very simply: it is the colour - white! But you look closely at this! White! Well, in truth, there are grey spots! So - it's grey! Actually, let's look closer still – there is a spot here – a tear there! Well what sort of grey is that! It is more like black after all! Well you can do it that way! You see! Let's continue to call it black! A joke? But not really. As professionals say about the "orange revolution": "Our secret of success is to make crazy the norm." This is a standard, widely used, propaganda trick! Remember Lenin and Stalin. After all, they had slops poured over them using this scheme, a scheme that turned them into "hard-core monsters," about whom saying a kind word – would be to commit an immoral act. Was there at the rally any criticism of the existing bourgeois order in Russia? Not at all! There was only criticism of the shortcomings of the individuals and separate personalities, but not the system! The Orange are not interested in criticising the thousands of collapsed plants and factories, weeds or overgrown fields or critical state of health, medicine, the military, or the hard life of millions of people. The "Bolotniks" in general prefer not to speak or speak very sparingly, about their understanding of the future after they come to power. The reason is simple - they know that by directly and openly talking about retaining the capitalist social order after coming to power is not very beneficial to them, as it would turn a lot of people against them. Yavlinsky is an illustrative example of this: "We have received a mandate from our constituents about a continuous political struggle for a different system: for fair elections, an independent judiciary, for equality before the law and the inviolability of property." Perhaps the last words are the most demonstrative in that sentence. We have already talked about the colourful part of the protesters. Why is it so? It seems logical to "cover over" an outburst of popular indignation with a "common cap". People who come to a rally, feel a keen disappointment by the fact that the current system of popular representation is anti-peoples and anti-democratic, that there is on the one hand, a disproportionate influence of the liberal-minded public figures in government and indeed in the political life of the country, and on the other hand, the bulk of the population rejects liberalism and liberal values. It is evident, moreover, of the inability of the ruling group to create and produce any idea uniting society that is remotely digestible, or even a logically built program of reforms, an agreed upon and not internally inconsistent program of addressing pressing problems of the country. The people can not help but perceive the Soviet Union increasingly as the golden age of the country. That is pretty much true. But the nationalists can not understand that it is a waste of time expecting some “kind Tsar” from the "Bolotniks"-liberals, and that the Communists must realize that liberalism and capitalism - are synonymous! The position of the liberals is clear - they now need the masses, even with all political persuasions. “Here, God willing, we will come to power and we will have this mass "organized" according to the life of Prokhorov”. The reader will be surprised - well, here it is You that will bend. And democracy and human rights? Why do You write about it like this? Yes, because the liberal happy future which the liberals-"Bolotniks," love to "scream" about - we have already been through! We have already passed through that in the era of perestroika, the dismemberment of the Soviet Union, the liberal reforms, the "five hundred days" economic program, the two "Volga" cars on the one voucher. And the very same Yavlinsky, Kasyanov, Prokhorov, created all that. Now they all want to get back to hanging on the necks of the people to have a swing. Keep in mind the perestroika saying: "Let the Party get on with its work!" Twenty years ago, the Liberals at the time (they are also the same ones in the present time), tried to convince the Soviet people using the following spin: the collapse of the Soviet Union is no disaster, but a liberation of Russia from the terrible bondage of Sovietism, and a return to the fold of world civilization. That is, a return to capitalism. A great deal has been renounced in the name of this return to capitalism. From a great state, created by gigantic efforts and enormous self sacrifice, to the Soviet way of life, and from its own historic path of development. There was only one annoying snag discovered – and that is, "ideologically", Russia does not fit into capitalism. The liberals realized this long ago: "Yes, - the liberals say- the Russian spirit and the Russian cultural matrix are incompatible with capitalism. We recognize it. But, we do not want to delve into specifically why that is the case. Because it is clear to us that it is either capitalism or death. So, in the name of life (i.e. the construction of capitalism), we will deal with Russia as a chef does with potatoes – to encourage the Russian spirit to mutate, to change the core of Russian culture, radically transform the Russian cultural matrix”. The current "romantic attachment" of the new post-Soviet Russia with capitalism has lasted twenty years. During these twenty years, capitalism has not created a thing, but only managed to destroy everything. The liberals say – “but nowadays is bad because we have not for over the past twenty years been able to build out of Russia a true, fully-fledged America – we have the market, we have gangsters, we have prostitution, we have unemployment, but none of that is enough, and what we need is a truly American way of life.” And if that is the case, they say, then we need any of the most radical means of encouraging Russia towards capitalism. We must "put the squeeze" on Russia. What can be said here about this? During twenty years, we have learned a lot, and realized it was time to finally separate the bourgeois false propaganda from the historical truth! It is time to spit in the face of our homegrown teachers - the "democrats" and their "universal" and "civic" values, and to understand, finally, that all these "values" are the same - the justification of banditry, looting, corruption and justification of the lowest of human vices. It is time to understand that the disaster that struck our homeland during the past twenty years is natural and not accidental. All these things are the inherent properties of capitalism, which can be destroyed only by destroying capitalism itself. Capitalism is profit addiction, whether in Marx's time, or in today, whether in America or Russia. Let's go back to what the communists have to say. They have a completely inadequate position in relation to the "lefty-liberal bloc"! Or they forget the people's wisdom, "do not ride on other people's sleighs?" However, already there are visible signs of understanding the unnaturalness of forming a bloc with the liberals-"Bolotniks", both by individual communists, and even parties. But illusions are still very common and a well-poured over component of the communist opposition. And this must be fought hard against and explanatory work carried out in this field. Yes, tactical blocs are possible, but only under the express condition of at least a relative benefit in terms of them achieving a strategic goal - to explain to the masses actual occurring events, the movement towards the ultimate goal of every communist - the restoration of the Soviet socio-political system and promoting communism. Without this, any blocs will be a pathetic attempt to "cling to" and "ride on someone else sleigh." It is necessary to clarify that both Putin and Medvedev, and Yavlinsky, and Kasyanov, and Prokhorov are no good – as all of them are just a "band of the bourgeois," and wolf-like gnawing away for power. All of them are implacable enemies of communists and communist ideology. The future October rally has to become an important stage in the ideological and propaganda work of all the communist parties, especially in explaining the essence of the "Bolotniy" phenomenon. We must go to the rally, having plucked the banner of struggle from the hands of the liberals, and deploy the struggle in the direction of the real interests of working people, in the struggle for the restoration of Soviet power and socialism. We do not need an "orange revolution", carried out with American money and pursuing only one goal - to consolidate the anti-peoples criminal bourgeois regime in Russia, securing a humiliating position of our country in the world, we do not need "a kind Tsar", who "will put everything right" - we have "seen enough" of such individuals - like Yeltsin, Putin, Medvedev. We need people's Soviet power which will give us, again, the right to choose judges, and all other representatives of power, which will return us the right of People's Control, confiscated by Yeltsin. To build a happy life of the people, for the welfare of the family and the people of the country, the slogan "RUSSIA – WITHOUT THE BOURGEOISIE!" is important and needed. WE ARE FOR THE REVIVAL OF SOCIALISM! WE ARE FOR THE REBIRTH OF THE USSR! CC AUCPB (Article prepared by the Secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks (CC AUCPB) S.V.Khristenko) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JULY 8 - DAY OF MEMORY OF COMRADE KIM IL SUNG On July 8 in the DPRK, public events are held in memory of the Great Leader, Father of the nation, the Generalissimo, the Great Commander, the Eternal President of the DPR Korea, Comrade Kim Il Sung. It was his intelligence and talent as an outstanding statesman, political and military leader that the Korean people owe their revival from out of Japanese colonial slavery and victory over the American predators in the Fatherland Liberation War of 1950-1953, great successes in all areas of life, and a dignified place and high respect in the world community of peoples. Kim Il Sung – this prominent politician of the second half of the twentieth century, led a life that was very humble and simple, very affable and friendly. He paid extraordinary attention to his companion in dialogue, was able to patiently listen to him, and he always spoke with authority and weight. He was struck with tireless concern for the working man and his needs. He was always dressed simply, ate simply, and in the rare free moments of leisure he loved to sit with a fishing rod on a perch. His personality reflects the integrity of his nature, self-discipline, commitment and selfless dedication to serving the working people. Kim Il Sung was indeed a man of great depth. Great leaders were born out of the people and give birth to radical changes in historical eras. Great leaders are great because they better than others have a deeper understand of the meaning of all indigenous historical fractures that occur and the needs of their accompanying development stage of a revolution, pressing forward in the vital interests of the masses. President Kim Il Sung deservedly belongs to that small galaxy of the immortals of world leaders who will never die and do not go away. They forever remain with their people, with their fighters for freedom and happiness of all the oppressed and dispossessed. The memory of them passed down from generation to generation, their bright image is an example of life and role models, cluttered with songs and tales in various languages of the world. The political sagacity and foresight of President Kim Il Sung is fully manifested in the choice of successor to the highest positions in the Party, Army and State. Given the bitter experience of succession continuity of supreme political power in the USSR and other socialist countries, Comrade Kim Il Sung very reasonably and properly solved this difficult problem in relation to modern Korea. Comrade Kim Il Sung, prepared a successor in the person of Comrade Kim Jong Il, persistently, carefully, persistently giving him a wealth of experience and instructed him to lead areas of public life, and then the daily affairs of the Party and State. Comrade Kim Jong Il passed through the whole school of theoretical and practical training for a leader under the guidance of Kim Il Sung, and therefore continued the worthy and successful leadership of the Korean revolution, defeating the enemies of the DPRK under extremely difficult circumstances that seemed invincible. The successes of the Korean people under the leadership of its prominent leaders - President Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il raised to unprecedented heights the spirit of national identity and national pride of Koreans, and made the entire world deeply respect the Korean people as a strong and gifted nation of the world community. Comrade Kim Il Sung headed the Korean revolution for almost seven decades. He was the oldest and last of the truly world leaders of the period of the Second World War, and almost to the end of the century. In Korea, they say that the story of the life and work of President Kim Il Sung is a story of the rising of the sun of the nation. His life is an absorption in one person of the entire history of the Korean revolutionary movement of the last two-thirds of the twentieth century. He founded the Workers' Party of Korea, he created and headed the Korean Peoples Army (KPA) - an invincible force of the revolution. Kim Il Sung headed and led the nation to victory in two brutal wars against imperialist predators - Japanese militarism and U.S. imperialism, along with their satellites. He headed and led the nation to victory in two revolutions in North Korea - the anti-imperialist-feudal general democratic revolution and the socialist revolution. Kim Il Sung has always been among the people who nurtured him back to the wisdom and the end of which he gave himself without reserve. Kim Il Sung was very fond of children, and did much for young citizens to grow up healthy, strong, and loved his beautiful Motherland. President Kim Il Sung left a rich theoretical legacy, culminating in the development of the Juche idea, which formed the basis of the ideology of the WPK. Together with Joseph Stalin, Kim Il Sung laid a solid foundation of friendship and brotherhood between our two countries, peoples and parties. The geographical position of our countries, our neighbourliness bring us together and contribute to fraternal friendship and cooperation. We feel a deep satisfaction from the fact that all the precious legacy of Kim Il Sung passed over to an outstanding leader, in the unparalleled policy and practice of the great Kim Jong Il - a faithful disciple and follower of the cause of Comrade Kim Il Sung. Today, the torch of Great Kim Jong Il has been received by Kim Jong Un. This means that the Korean revolution will continue successfully AUCPB ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT THE WORLD HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE TRAGEDY AND FARCE IN A REVOLUTION AND REVOLUTIONARYNESS ON REQUEST (How political provocations are created) Marx as is known, warned about the tragedy and farce in a revolution, with emphasis on Bonapartism, which turns political arrows towards revolutionary chronology, but in fact retreats to feudal despotism. Something similar has been seen in a message by Igor Gubkin sent out widely over the Internet, where he assigns the modern communist movement in Russia to dust, giving sympathy to only one ... Eduard Limonov's NBP – the National Bolshevik Party (Savenko). The author does not even bother to find sources of thought on the left flank of Russia who are able to judge the NBP and Limonov to be communists. That’s because there are simply none. Besides, I was not familiar with Gubkin and did not give my email address to him. Nevertheless, in his message, Gubkin compulsively tells us that he has discovered in himself a huge potential as a revolutionary leader and has come to the firm conviction that only he can find a "way out of the impasse," which the modern communist movement in Russia finds itself in. As a political trend, he proposes the option of a RUNO political party (a party of Russkovo Natsionalnovo Osvobozhdeniya)– a party of Russian National Liberation, tailored to the image and likeness to the departed from this life NBP of Limonov. The emphasis will be on young people, "desperate people", between the age of 15 to 30. In place of Soviets will be Committees of National Salvation. The proposed type of work of the new "revolutionary" party will be via party plebiscites, i.e. by method of voting over the Internet. In fact, Gubkin proposes a "second march" of the national bolsheviks (Natsbols) to take the communists of Russia out of "the stalemate". Accordingly, the author raises national priority over class priority. In this case he does not propose building a party of national-patriots, but sets strict limits in the framework of a "salvation" of the communists. In this regard, we recall something similar, back in the early years of NBP activity when "desperate people" at the age of 15 to 30 years, more often waved the name of Stalin than the national idea, trying to determine their place in the political arena and marched behind the AUCPB column at demonstrations. At the time we asked them if they knew that Stalin had at that age, thoroughly defined the position of the national question in Marxism, and he stated bluntly: "A nation is a bourgeois concept." The Natsbols just shrugged their shoulders, as they had never read, nor read, Stalin, Marx, Engels or Lenin. Then we directly explained to them that the name of their party (NBP), from Stalin's point of view, means ... "bourgeois Bolsheviks." That of course in itself is absurd. The youngsters once again shrugged and then withdraw into themselves. They were unable to carry on the dialogue. Therefore, gradually then formed the image of the average natsbol member, accustomed to expressing themselves in a political shout, directed for the most part, on the emotions of the philistine and not the communist. However, on the political stage of the Russian government, these shouts were quickly were recognized and then began sounding out by being widely reported in the media, especially television. As for these conflicting cries, the Russian authorities quickly found reason to move towards a tightening of the political screws, and still demanding a strengthening of the "verticals of power". Over the past fifteen years, the National Bolsheviks have grown out of short political pants and sought a better share. And their leader, E.Limonov, openly joined the camp of the liberals and united with them in their political efforts. Behind the NBP is a path trodden that no one will be proud of. But on this path they greatly distorted historical Bolshevism which the Russian authorities fired at from all political guns, not hesitating to move to elementary meanness. And now we have from Igor Gubkin a new declaration on the formation of new party, similar to the NBP. The author explicitly states: "Do not be afraid of "nationalism", for it is necessary to accommodate communist content into this concept". For credibility, Gubkin refers to S.G. Kara-Murza, the arguments which allegedly help him in the fight "with the Chimeras - artificially created by the people", because "among the nations - chimeras have a completely different nature of ethnicity" ... With this, Gubkin seems not to notice that S.G.Kara-Murza considered the psychological aspects of politics and not political construction. He primarily dealt with issues of manipulation of public opinion carried out by the ideological machine of imperialism, but did not work on the creation of a communist party. And to pull out quotes from subjects on the manipulation of public opinion on the part of ethnic groups, and place them into a subject of creating a party of communists which is historically obliged to recognize the development of the national question only in the direction of a unified Soviet people – is at least not serious. However, the entire message of Gubkin by its content consists of such incidents. And then there are questions that arise. But what was it created for? Why is it so shamelessly imposed? And here we have to give this some serious thought. One way or another, but in essence, this message was created for only one possible purpose, the goal to compromise the entire communist movement in Russia and, above all, the AUCPB, since the NBP places on itself the birthmarks as open provocateur of the revolutionary development of Bolshevism. To believe that this political "revelation" is needed by Gubkin alone, is equivalent indeed for people with a "complex fate" which formed around Gubkin himself. And that means – the venture is designed for political hysteria, the reproduction of which, in times of economic crises and political turmoil, is only amplified. Gubkin himself, with such political baggage, is incapable of holding such a policy on the left flank. No one, not even from the stalled Communists will cooperate with him. It is doubtful that even national-patriots will express any interest in Gubkin, as a leader. What then will be left for him to do for his own ego? All that remains is only to knock on other doors. And anyone who for such political material is able to "open the doors" – then these will be the structures of the "fifth column" that have the wide support both at home and abroad. Therefore, if we talk about the economic origins of such activities by odious figures like Gubkin, we have to talk about the political springs of the "fifth column", pushing political provocation to the height of the creation of political figures who are very much in demand by those who maintain them. Here we should remember those times when this political hysteria began in Russia and how it replicated. It all started banally, about ten years ago in the centre of Moscow, when on a large screen was shown a football match with the Russian team at the World Championships, which it had lost. Then empty beer bottles and other items were thrown into the front rows of fans from the back rows. Confusion began. From out of nowhere people appeared with iron concrete reinforcement bars and baseball bats and began wielding them, not hesitating to cause injury to others. This entire picture was observed by quite influential residents of the centre of the capital, accustomed to feel like "masters" of the city, and who were astonished at such a story of events of which they were directors. These people who had become very solid from the work done on the rehabilitation of the Trotskyists and other enemies of the people convicted in the leadership of the country during Stalin, during the events of 2002 published in the journal of the fifth column NTS (Solidarnost), material which tried to justify the crimes of Vlasov. As a result, their sympathies were always on the side of the "fifth column", or they were already part of it. So when these people saw that in the centre of Moscow some figures in plain clothes were talking on mobile phones and as a result of these talks, coordinated actions in that ongoing carnage - they voiced indignation. The conclusion of the advocates of the "fifth column" in their edition of the NTS was clear: all this is aimed to ensure that the Russian authorities request the strengthening of laws to combat such phenomena. And that is indeed what happened. We then published these findings of the Moscow elite, which is something in the practice of the Bolsheviks is extremely rare. Well, since the strengthening of the "verticals of power" already needed new directions of "terrorism", then on the television they began to swell up the bogey NBP led by Limonov. From the nationalists to Limonov, another kind of image of "skinheads" was added, who in the political arena, no one could see. Apparently, by "skinheads", Limonov was not found, so reporters had to live in a world created by them, together with the skinheads. However, in all this diversity of political voices who are friendly to the ranks of fighters against "terrorism", there began to grow a wave of forming of "vertical of power" in Russia. Together with the "vertical of power", the political branch of the "fifth column" intensified, fully recognizable by the West claiming Russian resources, and feeling free to claim the whole of Siberia. And, as assumed in such cases, in the dispute of "business" objects, a higher judicial finger was required, which usually means under the existing system of justice in every state, but which at the present time in Russia there is none. Therefore, if on the international arena the state begins to lose its influence due to a decrease in living standards and the crisis in industry (supporting this very quality of life), then the court system is adjusted by all sorts of "experts" on the part of states with a more advanced standard of living. The EU countries and the United States turned out more developed, but it did not give them any right to criticize or correct the court system in Russia, since the Western judicial systems legally stand only through their own alliances and unions. But in reality, demands were made that were developed jointly by members of the NATO countries that were able to support states that are very much dependent on their credit or banking system, such as the feudal Saudi Arabia and the other emirates. As a result, the "vertical of power" in Russia began to call these demands "international standards" and partly recognized their effect on its territory. But for NATO countries, this was not enough, and so they switched on their mass media towards the correction of the judicial system to satisfy the demands of "democratization" of justice in Russia with their own improvisation of moral motives, combined with the demands of Western justice. Although in the Western structures of judicial proceedings, each State has the right to follow their own laws, what is most characteristic in some U.S. states, where in the most severe cases, the death sentence is carried out, and without response to outside criticism or opinion. The development of legislation aimed at uniting the economies of participating countries and solving the national question on part of them, become mandatory requirements for Western justice. As for Russia in the early twenty-first century, at that time in order that the desired result for the West came about sooner than later, the "fifth column" was connected to the affair, as it is always ready to support its Western backers. The result of such political pressure on Russia over the past decade has been due to the consolidation of actions of political structures of NATO and the Russian "fifth column". All this was expressed by the creation of a common policy of "human rights" aimed at the separation of the resource base of a country from its people. Here the "power vertical" was not left out of the resource base, not missing a chance to join capital. In fact, this was accompanied by removal of both energy resources and capital flight from the country. Well, and in order that public attention did not become fixated on such a fabulous level of resource removal and capital flight, for domestic use, the brake was released on the flywheel of corruption. And the media then began the largest imitation of a fight against corruption. The net effect was the same situation, similar to the Spanish example in 1936: the "fifth column" destroys the structure of the armed resistance in the capital city, leaving the remaining four columns of the troops of Franco holding a triumphant march around Madrid. The only difference is that in Moscow and Petersburg, the "four columns" depict themselves as part of Russia’s own oligarchs as well as foreign ones. You've got to admit that today's "fifth column" can exist only in conjunction with the policy of "human rights" carried out by NATO countries. Otherwise, the West would have simply ceased to support them. The main objective of the "fifth column" is still the same work on the collapse of state systems from the inside, through which the imperialist conglomerates are able to seize the resource base of collapsed States, or for credibility to bring in the rest of the "four columns", i.e. NATO forces, where they can hold a triumphant march around a country collapsed from internal conflicts, and place their own henchmen from the "fifth column" on that country’s resource base. Sending in the troops will be accompanied by the motive of liberating the people from some arbitrary regime, again to save "human rights", and the arbitrariness of the invaders over the conquered territory will be made to appear as single acts of intolerance, replicated by the invaders themselves as a critical eye on themselves. All that we have seen over the past ten years started with the notorious terrorist figure bin Laden, who was fostered by the U.S. CIA school. What did the companions of bin Laden try to "solve" with their mental attacks and cruelty? They tried to "solve" namely the national question in the framework of the Koran, which had an interpretation in Saudi Arabia. But now the U.S. has physically removed bin Laden, as he was no longer needed by them. They could stir up ethnic groups in Lebanon without him, and they got the desired result in the destruction of Gadaffi and the capture of Libyan oil. Now the West is trying the same model for the collapse of Syria, through which this opens the way for Iran's oil. What distinguishes the actions of the "fifth columns" in Libya and Syria from the European model? Only by the fact that the U.S. promise the most influential community leaders or religious concessions future control over the oil resources of the country, in the image of the sheikhs of Saudi Arabia. After that, the local leaders will already be trying to come to terms with smaller tribal leaders, and if successful, proceed to armed action in favour of NATO. The trouble is that many leaders in the Middle East and Africa have been reduced to the fact that, having passed through the stages of winning their bourgeois revolutions, they rested on their laurels regarding the national question and decided that was they had gained was enough just for their own authority. It is impossible not to recall also the fact that the Soviet leadership, which had considerable influence over these leaders did not direct them to the path of the Stalin solution of the national question, in favour of a movement towards the unity of the peoples, since the Soviet leadership itself was mired in anti-Stalinism. But the U.S. and Western Europe began to do everything as written by Stalin. And now the entire West cleverly plays on the strings of nationalism of those who passed by the teachings of Stalin. However, the West, spreading the wings of Bonapartism, as well as the East taken under their wings, has not been faced in recent years with the need to study Marx's interpretation of the tragedy and farce in a revolution. They only build up a critical mass of discontent that grows on the economic enslavement in dependent countries. Imperialism has upheld its aggressive military strategy, and only the tactics in carrying out these wars has changed. Nowadays, "fifth columns" prepared in advance have become the main driving force in battles, and the elements of psychological warfare are the main weapon, originally developed by Dulles in his doctrine on the collapse of the Soviet Union. Since by using this "weapon" of Dulles, the Soviet Union was destroyed, the imperialists are left with no choice but to upgrade his mechanism and use it in hot spots in order to capture the resource base, breaking up the state systems from the inside which have been trapped under gun sights. In addition, states that the imperialist predators have to capture are not as strong as was the case with the USSR. Even state structures can be replaced by imperialism in favour of its puppets for the appearance of defending national interests, because the predators need the resources that belong to other people's countries, not the states themselves. But, as history shows, the victories of Bonapartism are quickly coming to an end, because they are an expression of counter-revolution, due to the crisis in the course of the revolution itself. Revolutions are governed by the laws of exiting an economic paralysis and are focused on the healthy forces, similar to an ill patient in order not to die, always tries to find in him or herself the strength to recover. Therefore, revolutions restore healthy forces within themselves and lead a country's economic organism out of paralysis. As for the revolution in Russia, it is living its life. For changing the economic structure of peasant life in October 1917, the revolution opened up a space for the development of productive forces. And since this factor in the development of productive forces is crucial for a revolution, then also the movement towards it remains extremely difficult, caused by the resistance of the outgoing parasitic segments of society. Here is why Great October as a revolution can exhaust itself only when the money system ceases to exist, and with it will cease to exist classes and class hatred. In the meantime, the revolutionary can not afford to confuse the tragedy of the survival of the Great October Revolution with the farce of its overthrowers, who once again are placing Russia on the same verge of survival, as in 1917. Since the current world crisis is once again driving Russia into a weakest link in the chain of imperialism, then just like during the First World War, forcing a Tsar to abdicate from the throne, in modern day Russia, a repeat of this action has occurred and one "tsar" has already been denied. But one “tsar” has handed over power to another "tsar" rather than to a Provisional Government, in the hope that the replacement “tsar” is not a Temporary Government type, and that he holds on to power and endures. Tsar Vladimir Putin of course will hold on to power, but the heirs of the Provisional Government-2 (the non-system opposition) have also matured and want power. At the same time, the main levers of management such as the banking system are more and more weakened in the hands of the authorities. And although this banking system looks quite healthy, it is unable to lend money to completely restore the worn-out life-support systems of the country, as capital is being exported from the country in predatory fashion. Therefore, if in 1917 the country did not have enough ammunition and military equipment for the front and either the life support system of front and rear stopped, then nowadays in Russia, the life support system of the country is only breathing on its last legs and is ready to bring the country to a standstill at any time. In the worldwide historical significance of the October Revolution, it is clear that it matured on the tragedy of World War II. In the worldwide historical significance of the present moment in time, it is clear that it is repeating the events of a century ago as a farce. The only difference is that in those days the banking system went bankrupt and landed the production potential on zero, but nowadays the industrial potential is so exhausted that at any time it may lead the country's banking system into a tailspin and immediately bring the value of the ruble to "kerenki-2" (paper currency issued under Kerensky and popularly known as kerenki – fb). What forces created the landing on zero in those days and what forces are doing this nowadays? In those days, Lenin saw the reason in the "party of Guzhonov," which the Provisional Government failed to make the party fulfil its obligations to maintain efficiency of industrial potential. Nowadays the situation is being repeated throughout. Only now, the "party of Guzhonov" is a "vertical of power", and the maturing Provisional Government-2 is still seeking to win a share in the export of capital. How does the modern world market which the Russian philistine is so eager to join, identify the actions of the "party of Guzhonov"? The market reflects this destructive force in the fact that the shares of the leading energy companies are completely worthless, except, of course, for the resources (oil, gas), which are ranked as the utilities specialists in the export of capital from the country. These energy companies are responsible for the livelihood of the population and industry. And if during the period of Chubais’s reforms many specialists left the energy companies, having seen the destructive contours of system failure hanging over the companies, which were partly reflected then at the Sayno-Shushensky hydro-electric power plant disaster in August 2009, and which the owners of the shares themselves ran quickly away from, and which indicates the onset of the period "X" a pre-emergency state characteristic of the entire energy complex. If an energy collapse occurs in the warmer months or in a moderately cool season, then the devastating effects will take on the predicted form of a farce. If it occurs together with a "general frost", then there will be a continuation of the tragedy. But in fact, and in both cases, there will only be one way out: and that will be via the continuation of the Great October Socialist Revolution.

For Bolshevism No7 (112) July 2012

WORKERS OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE! ALL-UNION COMMUNIST PARTY OF BOLSHEVIKS SOCIALIST REVOLUTION FOR BOLSHEVISM INSIDE THE COMMUNIST AND WORKERS’ MOVEMENT FOR BOLSHEVISM-AUCPB website: http://aucpbenglishwebsite.blogspot.com No 07 (112) JULY 2012 --------------------------------------------------------------------- STALIN IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR THE BELARUSIAN BOURGEOIS AUTHORITIES, ON VICTORY DAY Victory Day in Minsk in the post-Soviet era since 1995 has been widely and solemnly celebrated: the traditional procession of veterans from the October Square in Minsk to Victory Square has been held, where the president makes a speech and an official wreath-laying ceremony takes place at the Victory monument. Passage into the area for those wishing to take part in laying flowers is only ensured by special control: on all approaches to the area, ​​booths are set up to check for metal objects, where a thorough examination is carried out on citizens together with the searching of bags, packages, etc. Many people in such times remember the Soviet times, when there was no need for such a humiliating procedure, especially on such a holy day for the Soviet people. The Minsk Bolsheviks, as always, came with the standard of the AUCPB, together with portraits of V.I. Lenin and J.V. Stalin, and USSR and BSSR banners, streamers, Bolshevik newspapers and leaflets, onto which were printed greetings by the CC AUCPB on Victory Day. Everyone is subjected to scrutiny, but specific claims have been made against our literature, which they first seized but later returned. Finally, having passed through total control points, we got to the square and, by unfurling our attributes waited for the official ceremony to end, then go to the Eternal Flame and the Victory Monument. But suddenly, there appeared brave inflated fellows who began to remove us from the area. They especially did not like the AUCPB standard, portraits J.V. Stalin and Soviet flags. Our admonition that the Soviet flag is a flag, under which the victory was won, and J.V. Stalin - the head of the Great Victory, did not help. We were shoved out of the square like unwanted items at the festival, and did not allow us there until the official ceremony was over. Finally, despite the negative attitude of the special branch towards our Soviet attributes, the Bolsheviks again gathered on the square. However, it should be admitted that the special branch after that did not interfere with us or the portraits of J.V. Stalin and Soviet flags in the centre of the Belarusian capital. After the official activities, many people walked with flowers to the Victory monument. The Bolsheviks, distributing the newspaper "Vperyod", "Serp I Molot", and greetings by the Central Committee of the AUCPB, conducted their work with Minsk residents and guests to promote the ideas of Bolshevism and clarify the role of J.V. Stalin in the Soviet Union in achieving victory over Nazi Germany and the salvation of mankind from the threat of fascist enslavement. Minsk organization of the AUCPB ====================================================== FOR OUR SOVIET MOTHERLAND, FOR STALIN! The period of 1941-1945 was a war of the entire Soviet people for freedom and independence of the Socialist Fatherland and for the salvation of humanity from the Nazi tyranny. In comparison, the truth is known. During the Great Patriotic War the Soviet socialist system had passed all the tests and further strengthened. The results of the war showed that the system was the most viable and sustainable in the world, the best form of social organization. Under Stalin, under socialism, even during the war, new factories and power plants were contructed (D. Chistov, "Stalin. Life for the people", 2012, p.161-162), but nowadays, in peacetime, in a capitalist Russia, many enterprises, on the contrary, are destroyed, production drops sharply, they sell the equipment, and workers are laid off. The current crisis of overproduction, the constant companion of the bourgeois order, hit primarily the automotive industry. The Volga car factory is in an extremely difficult position, the number of cars produced dramatically reduced, reduced workers' wages and as a result of reductions, the army of unemployed is replenished. The Izhevsk automobile plant in general is almost at a standstill since the fall of 2009. Wages have fallen sharply. One section of the team of workers at the plant worked at the so-called "public works", the other - was on partially paid leave. KAMAZ (Kamsky car factory), located in Naberezhnye Chelny, is constantly reeling. One minute the conveyor is stopped, then workers are sent on partially extended paid leave, then fired completely. But under Stalin, under socialism, new auto plants were built even during the Great Patriotic War. People were able to realize themselves, to get a decent wage without delay. And this was at a time when in some western areas of the Soviet Union, they were still ruled by the Nazis. Under Stalin, under socialism, even in the period from 1941 to 1945, sales of goods were produced at the pre-war state prices, which remained largely unchanged throughout the war. Simply put, prices in the Soviet Union during World War II did not grow, but remained the same ("The Soviet Union during the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945". M., 1977, p.117). Not one country ever had this. Did socialism by this not demonstrate its superiority over capitalism? In Britain it was the opposite. The British Isles during the Second World War was dominated by inflation. In 2009, in peacetime, there was an accident with loss of life at the Sayano-Shushensky power plant. The death toll amounted to more than 70 people! In comparison, the truth is known. During the war, spies of Schellenberg, chief of the 6th Division of the Nazi Reich Security Main HQ, saboteurs of the Canaris - head of German military intelligence (Abwehr) failed to sabotage any power at the rear of the USSR. During 1941-1945, there was not one similar disaster to such structures. Nowadays, the economy is collapsing, and not only in capitalist Russia. The same thing is happening in other capitalist countries. In a deep crisis is American automaker "General Motors", dragging down behind it to the bottom German group of companies "Opel." In the supposedly "safe" Sweden at the beginning of 2010 there were layoffs at factories, "Saab", "Volvo". All of these enterprises, being unprofitable, like basketballs are being transferred from the hands of one owner to another. In Scandinavia, rising unemployment, corruption, crime rates are also creeping up. So all European countries are now dominated by essentially the same capitalism, as in Russia and Ukraine. Capitalism can not be divided into "wild" and "tame." capitalism. This is stupid. Capitalism has always and in every country been "wild." Unemployment, inflation, paid medical care, education, high crime, the economic crisis – this is savagery, which should not be in a civilized society without the quotes. "Savagery" – this is unemployment, inflation, private medicine and education, crime, excess of deaths over births are also present in Sweden, and Switzerland, not to mention Germany, France, England or the United States. "Savagery" is an integral part and birthmark of any capitalism. Therefore, wild capitalism prevails not only in Russia but also in Sweden, Switzerland, England, France, Germany, and the United States. And they feel great hunger, poverty, gang violence, corruption, police-sadists, the mafia, drug addiction, alcoholism and lawlessness, and other "charms." The fact is that the so-called West, including the U.S. and Europe, does not like to wash its own dirty linen in public, and carefully guard against the disclosure of all its shortcomings, and does not advertise the shameful part of their society, in contrast to Russia. A truly civilized society without the quotes and the "savagery" is only socialism. Today's socialist states of Cuba and the DPRK, where there is no unemployment, hunger, poverty, high crime rates, and where free education and medicine are entrenched, are truly and without quotation marks civilized nations. The USSR was another such country, especially in the Stalin era. The Soviet Union under Stalin during the Great Patriotic War, demonstrated to the whole world the effectiveness of the socialist economy, its ability even in an extreme situation to develop, build new enterprises to ensure full employment. The restoration of enterprises destroyed the invaders, the starting up of new plants, and construction of power plants in the USSR in 1941-1945 - all these facts suggest that Stalin was at this difficult time occupied with not only defence issues, but also as Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars (Soviet Government) in charge of the economy and economic life of the country. How did he manage to successfully manage both fronts to deal with ideology, economy, foreign policy issues, to respond to hundreds of thousands of letters of ordinary citizens of the USSR? The genius of Stalin remains a mystery and to the present day. Stalin and the CPSU (b) were the organizers of Victory. The basis of the strength and viability of the Soviet socialist system, which was especially evident in the Great Patriotic War, was the absence of exploiting classes and the exploitation of man by man. Instead was the socialist public ownership of the means and instruments of production. The Soviet system, the socialist nature of the Soviet economy made it possible in the period 1941-1945, to make the most rational and reasonable use of all resources of the country in the interest of defeating the enemy and to ensure the rebuilding of the Soviet economy on a war footing in a very short time. Only the Soviet socialist country and the Soviet people, led by Stalin and the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks, was the force in heavy combat with the enemy to quickly create a well-organized and growing war economy that ensured the defeat of Hitler's army. The strength of the Soviet social system consisted primarily in the fact that it was a truly peoples’ system. Great Lenin had in 1920 pointed out that "... our cause stands firm, no matter what attempts are made to invade Russia and unleash military campaigns against her, and these attempts will no doubt continue, but we have hardened our experience and on the basis of actual experience we know that all these attempts will turn to scattered ashes. And after each attempt by our enemies, we will come out stronger than we were before them "(V.I. Lenin, Collected Works, Vol. Fourth, v.31, p.304). Lenin said that the side that wins a war will be the one with more reserves, more sources of power and more support in the popular strata. The results of the Second World War and the victory of the Soviet people over Hitlerism brilliantly confirmed the thesis of this genius. The Soviet Union crushed Nazi Germany primarily due to the leading and cementing force of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks, and the critical role of the General Secretary J.V. Stalin. During the war, the Bolshevik Party threw its best efforts into strengthening the front and rear, to defeat the enemy. Communists were always at the forefront of the defenders of the Motherland. With honour of carrying the high rank of a member of the party, they walked fearlessly to the enemy, encouraging men by word and by personal example. The behaviour of the Communists in battle and work was an example of boundless loyalty to the Soviet people and the socialist Motherland. The vanguard role of Communists in the front of the struggle against the fascist invaders is demonstrated by the fact that out of 10,942 soldiers that had received the title Hero of the Soviet Union, two-thirds were Communists. The victory over fascism was won not only by the courage of Soviet soldiers, but also with modern weapons of the time, well-delivered to supply the army from the defence plants that were provided primarily due to the outstanding organizational role of J.V. Stalin. Stalin during the war highlighted the crucial factors deciding the fate of an armed confrontation with Nazism. These included the strength of the rear, the morale of the army, the number and quality of divisions, weaponry in the army and organizational skills of the commanders. The strength of the Red Army, according to the Leader, was the fact that it was not aggressive, not leading an imperialist war, but a domestic war of liberation, a just war. The outstanding role of J.V. Stalin in the Victory over German fascism and the heroism of the Bolshevik Communists and all Soviet people on the front and rear are for the modern Bolshevik revolutionaries, unfading examples in the struggle for the revival of the Soviet Union and socialism. ============================================= UKRAINE – IN SELF-DESTRUCTION MODE That tragedy, which happened to Oksana Makar, is not an isolated incident. There is a mass destruction of the Ukrainian people. In May, three thugs in Vinnitse beat up a 26-year-old young man with CP disability (cerebral palsy) because of a mobile phone. And the beating took place 100 meters from a police station. The young man being beaten cried out and begged for help, but the police "did not see anything and heard nothing." For three days the doctors fought for his life, but could not save him. Victor Pryadko on died May 9, on the 67-th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people over fascism. And this story would never have received publicity, if it were not for Lyudmila Martynyuk, who witnessed the incident, and during those days was in hospital. First she went to the Regional Council. But the authorities did not react to this most savage case. And only when Marchenko addressed the local press, did they publish a note about this, and this brutal case received publicity. We can say that during the years of "independence" there has been a complete moral degradation of the Ukrainian people. On the one hand, the so-called majors, children of wealthy parents, are completely corrupted by their (parental) wealth and absolute impunity. They treat ordinary people worse than animals, worse than slaves were treated in ancient Rome, and care not one bit. On the other hand, a significant portion of the working people, deprived of work, wages, who have no prospects in the future, morally sink, binge drink, turn into alcoholics and drug addicts, criminals and gangsters, prostitutes and homeless people ... and lose all will to live and struggle. We have repeatedly pointed out that over the 20 years of "independence", Ukraine's population of 52 million people has decreased to 45.5 million (official data). Plus, the number who have emigrated from Ukraine amounts to about 7 million people, in search of work, in search of earning a potential to provide for themselves and their families. As a result, no more than 38 million people are currently living in Ukraine. And this is not the limit of fall. According to the director of the Institute of Demography and social problems, Libanova Ella, by 2050, no more than 35-36 million people will be living in Ukraine. And if from this figure is subtracted the number of migrant workers (the so-called guest workers our) of no less than 7 million people, then the Ukraine will be by mid-century will have a maximum population of 28 million people. This is the result of the destruction of the Soviet Union, the so-called "independence", and the power of capital. Only the working class and toiling masses of Ukraine, who rise up to the revolutionary struggle to overthrow the power of capital, for Soviet power, socialism and the revival of the Soviet Union can prevent a national catastrophe. Namely in the struggle will the negative phenomena in the mass of working people be overcome, will strength be forged, courage and indomitable will to victor over the exploiters and oppressors of the masses. The regime knows that the people’s patience will sooner or later run out, and they will rise up to fight for their liberation. And in this case, the bourgeoisie resort to the tried and tested last means of salvation - fascism. The open neo-Banderite regime was the orange Yushchenko-Tymoshenko regime. But at least they told people directly that they are for Bandera, Shukhevych and other hirelings of Hitler's fascism and butchers of his own and other peoples. The blue and white (the Party of the Regions), when coming to power, pretended to be different: they were friendship with Russia and for the Russian language, etc. But once in power, the regime of Yanukovych-Azarov began to conduct the same nationalistic policy that orange did - the policy of flirting and indulging with neo-banderite-pro-fascist forces. In late April, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, by a majority of vote decided to celebrate the 120th anniversary of Joseph Slipyj, the Cardinal of the Greek-Catholic Church. One who swore allegiance to the Fuhrer and Nazi Germany, who consecrated the Banderites to the massacre of Ukrainian, Russian, Polish, Jewish and other peoples. The parliament recommended that the Government establish a committee to prepare the celebration of the 120th anniversary of the birth of Joseph Slipyj, to promote the publication of his works. The parliament decision also stipulates that within a year, the state radio and television will organize programs dedicated to the life and work of the head of the UGCC (Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church. Additionally, the Verkhovna Rada proposed to issue commemorative coins from the series of "Outstanding Personalities of Ukraine" with the image of the patriarch Joseph Slipyj, and the Ukrainian state enterprise "Ukrpochta" - to publish a series of envelopes and carry out production of special stamps with the portrait of the patriarch of the UGCC. Therefore, a brief recall for our readers about who this "outstanding(!) personality of Ukraine" Joseph Slipj really is. He was born in Ternop region, in the village of Zazdrist (Zavist (Envy) - in Russian), Austria-Hungary (at that time). He studied at the Lviv and Catholic (Innsbruck) universities and received a doctorate in theology. On September 30, 1917, Metropolitan Sheptytsky ordained him priest. In 1918-1919 he served in the Ukrainian Galician Army (UGA) of the so-called West Ukrainian People’s Republic (existed since the late 1918 to early 1919.). After the defeat of the UGA, he was evacuated to Rome, in 1919-1922 studied at the Pontifical Oriental and Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. Beginning in 1922, he taught dogmatics at the Lviv Greek-Catholic seminary and in 1925 became its rector. From 1929 he was rector of the Lviv Theological Academy. He was a close associate of Metropolitan Sheptytsky. In 1935, Metropolitan A. Sheptytsky appointed Slipyj as archdeacon of Lviv metropolitan archbishop. On December 22,1939, with the blessing of Pope Pios XII, Slipyj was ordained as the Archbishop of Lviv with the right of succession. It was conducted by Metropolitan A. Sheptytsky in strict secrecy. On November 1, 1944, after the death of Metropolitan Sheptytsky, Slipyj assumed the head of the Greek Catholic Orthodox Church and became the new Metropolitan of Galicia ... On June 30, 1941 at dawn, Nazi troops stormed Lviv. At the forefront of the invaders was the Nachtigall battalion led by Oberlander, Shukhevych, chaplain Grinoh. They immediately went to the Cathedral of St. George, to receive a blessing from Sheptytsky to kill innocent civilians in the city. In the courtyard of the Cathedral, the Metropolitan conducted the service, which was attended by Slipyj, Ivan Grinoh and others, as well as the captain, Hans Koch, a member of the Abwehr, who on the instructions of Canaris, was in contact with the leaders of the OUN and the hierarchs of the Uniate Church."We rejoice liberation of our land from godless Bolshevism - Sheptytsky said, referring to the murderer of "Nachtigal". - From all our hearts we welcome our liberators the German army and its leader Adolf Hitler. I sincerely ask the Almighty for the victory of German arms over Bolshevism ... bless you, my sons, to the sacred struggle for the truth of God. In your hands is the destiny of your people and our future. Begin and God be with you!" And ... the nachtigalites began shooting, killing, torturing, throwing babies onto the street from the upper floors of houses. In the first days of the occupation, OUN-ites ruthlessly massacred more than 3 thousand people of Lviv. On the same day, on June 30, in the evening at the Hall of "Prosvita" Jaroslav Stetsko, the first deputy of the "leader" of the OUN, Stepan Bandera, read out the proclamation of the Act of the Restoration of the Ukrainian State. In the third paragraph of the Act it states: "The restored Ukrainian State will closely collaborate with the Nazi Reich of National Socialist Great Germany, which is creating a new order in Europe and the world under the leadership of Adolf Hitler creates and helps the Ukrainian people to liberate themselves from the Moscow occupation. The Ukrainian National Revolutionary Army, which will be created on Ukrainian soil, will continue to struggle alongside the allied German army against Moscow's occupation for a Sovereign Cathedral Ukrainian State and a new order in the whole world." Both Hans Koch from the German government and the Metropolitan Sheptytsky with Slipyj welcomed the Banderites, ...In April 1945, Slipyj was arrested and sentenced to eight years for his pro-fascist activities. On his release, he continued to engage in anti-Soviet activities, for which he was again sentenced to 7 years. In the Khrushchev period, as a result of interference from the Pope and U.S. president John Kennedy, Slipyj was released to take part in the Second Vatican Council in Rome, where he remained. On December 23, Pope Paul VI named the Metropolitan of Galicia Archbishop Joseph Slipyj as Major Archbishop of Lviv, and February 23, 1965 awarded him the title of cardinal. In subsequent years, Slipyj made efforts to enhance the life of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in the West. He founded the Ukrainian Catholic University and St. Clement Ukrainian Catholic faculties in the universities of London, Washington, Chicago, Philadelphia and several Ukrainian religious seminaries, and built the Hagia Sophia in Rome ... In 1975, he assumed himself the title "patriarch", for which he was subjected to censure by the Pope and a number of priests of the Greek Catholic Church. Slipyj died on September 7, 1984 in Rome, where he was buried. In 1992, according to his will, his remains were moved to the Lviv and buried in the crypt (tomb) of St. George's Cathedral. And thus this spiritual servant of Bandera and the Nazis is treated by the Verkhovna Rada as an outstanding figures of Ukraine and they have decided to mark the 120th anniversary of Slipyj on a state scale. In Lviv, the local authorities for the second consecutive year, prohibit the use of Communist symbols and symbols of the Soviet Union on May Day and Victory Day. This is in an article by our correspondent from Lviv "The Capital of Bandrites and Ukrainian Fascism." In this same row stand a series of explosions in the centre of Dnipropetrovsk on April 27, when 25-29 people (according to various sources) sought medical treatment. In this regard, the head of the Ministry of Justice A. Lavrynovych said that a state of emergency in the country would not be introduced – as he considered there to be no grounds for this. Not yet. But the ruling regime, fearing the growing popular anger, as well as being increasingly isolated internationally, can go for anything, including a state of emergency to crush the struggle of the working masses for their liberation. You can say that fascism is gaining momentum in Ukraine and all the more urgent becomes the problem to stop fascism! Of course, the problem of the struggle against fascism in Ukraine is inseparably linked with the struggle for the abolition of the rule of capital. APOTHEOSIS OF BETRAYAL The election campaign in Russia is over. V. Putin was elected the president, as it was clear from the outset to the Bolsheviks. Immediate recognition of the legitimacy of his victory by Barack Obama could not fail to not surprise. After all, the U.S. seemed to be opposed to Putin's election as president. U.S. Vice President John Baden, who visited Russia in the beginning of last year, recommended Putin not to run for president of Russia. However, the ruling elite of Russia dared to disobey the highest orders and judged for themselves. President Putin was elected, and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev approved, i.e., the ruling tandem transformed in accordance with the real political weight and influence.The "secret" of the approval by Barack Obama of the election of for President Putin was discovered very quickly. The price of this - the creation of NATO bases in Ulyanovsk. Already at the beginning of February the media reported that Russia and NATO agreed to expand the capabilities of military cargo transit through the territory of the Russian Federation. Due to the outlined withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, NATO, the question arose about the route of withdrawal. Uzbekistan refused to allow back NATO troops from Afghanistan. According to media reports, the Uzbeks are afraid of importation of drugs and weapons into the country: "There would be whole convoys of military equipment, so all that is not so easy to check." So when the U.S. proposed to the Russian authorities that they to find a city in central Russia, where they could create a logistical base with a customs terminal where planes would thrown out their cargo from Afghanistan, and then went by train to the Baltic states - Ulyanovsk was proposed. The airport "Ulyanovsk-East" has one of the world's longest runways. It is able to take aircraft of any class. This airport is the base for the Ulyanovsk plant "Aviastar-SP" and the 31st Airborne Brigade Guard. Creating a NATO base in the heart of Russia, the birthplace of Lenin is a betrayal of national interests of Russia, Russians, and all other indigenous people of the country. That's the real price of Putin's election as president. On April 10, the Russian Foreign Ministry issued an official explanation that "there will not and can not be any NATO military base or transit centre in Ulyanovsk. Neither military nor civilian personnel of NATO countries are supposed to arrive there." Some military analysts subjected the Russian Foreign Ministry statement to a thorough analysis, in which, inter alia, it states that "we are talking about exploring the feasibility of transit of only non-lethal (non-military) cargo of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan by combined method - air, road and rail transport through the territory of the Russian Federation. There is nothing new or sensational in Russia supporting the ISAF for transit, at all." And this is the lie of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia. It should be noted that the ISAF has been under the command of NATO since 08/11/2003. Moreover, all contracts for transit through the Russian Federation were concluded not with the ISAF, which does not exist juristically, but directly with NATO. The Basic Law, under which NATO transits is the Federal Law of 07.06.2007 № 99-FZ "On ratification of the Agreement between the parties to the North Atlantic Treaty and other states participating in the program "Partnership for Peace" on the status of their Forces from June 19, 1995, and the Additional Protocol thereto." In this law there is not a single mention of the ISAF. The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in stating the ISAF, is simply misinforming the public. It should also be noted that the acts of "On the Status of Forces» (Status of Forces Agreement, SOFA), are standard regulations on the organization of the U.S. Armed Forces on the territory of other states. Such agreements were entered by the U.S. with Iraq, Japan and South Korea. A similar agreement is currently being considered by the leadership of Afghanistan over the setting up of long-term U.S. military bases in the country. Therefore, no matter how fabled or cloaked words are by the Russian leadership, it is clear that on the territory of Russia very soon, with the start of the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, there will be a NATO base. At a recently held NATO Summit in Chicago (USA) it was noted that the first phase of the deployment of NATO missile defence in Europe had been completed. This system should be deployed in full in four phases and the completion of its deployment scheduled for 2018. And the European missile defence system is directed against the nuclear potential of Russia, to prevent any possibility of a breakthrough of Russian intercontinental ballistic missiles onto U.S. territory. In April 2010, START-3 was signed by the U.S. and Russia, which is a betrayal of Russia’s national interests. Military analysts say that by 2015, the strategic nuclear potential of Russia will be so weakened, the United States and NATO will be able to strike Russia with impunity, by having created a reliable system of defence against possible retaliation. The United States is purposefully and aggressively fulfilling its principal objective, to occupy and dismember Russia, finally turning it into a raw materials appendage of the West. Only the selfless struggle of the masses led by the working class of Russia to overthrow the power of capital, a revolutionary struggle for the restoration of Soviet power, a return to the socialist path of development and the revival of the Soviet Union will prevent a national catastrophe. We see that the interests of working people in Ukraine and Russia, however, as in the other republics of the former Soviet Union are the same. A. MAEVSKY, Secretary of the CC AUCPB. ============================================ REVIEW OF THE LABOUR MOVEMENT (MAY – JUNE 2012) Bus workers strike in Irkutsk. On May 19, 2012. Irkutsk bus employees went on strike. Thus they managed to get their accumulated for more than three months salary arrears. The company's management, knowing about the planned strike limited itself to promises to the employees. However, a few days after the start of the strike action began, the money to pay them was found. A strike at a textile factory in North Ossetia The labor collective of the textile factory "Zarina" in North Ossetia began strike action from May 21. The reasons were many months of wage arrears, and an increase in working hours by two hours. Currently, negotiations are underway with the strikers of the factory. At Voronezh airport – planned strike action! At Voronezh airport a labour dispute has been underway. Employees of "Voronezhavia" have been threatened with mass dismissal, and there are problems with salaries. Negotiations are continuing with the employer. However, if compromise fails, the team intends to begin a strike in the form of full or partial waiver of servicing of AK "Poleyt." Workers on strike at "Mytishchi heating" network Twenty-five employees of the site, "Rhythm" of "Mytischinskaya heating system" (Moscow) on 30 May ended their patience and went on strike. In April they were a total of seven thousand rubles, while their salary is supposed to be 20-30 thousand rubles. Management stated that there was no money, and promised to pay everything in full later. However, the money had not been received. Shipbuilders on strike in Buryatia Work at a shipyard in Buryatia has stopped due to strike action announced by employees of the company on account of non-payment of their salaries. Protesters refused to work for three days. At the same time, they arrive at their workplaces. Thus, one of the shipyard employees reported that there was a delay in wage payment of two months. The situation with regular deductions of wages at the plant has continued throughout the year. Also, the protesters say that the enterprise as a whole is in a very difficult position. Its work is constantly interrupted by internal conflicts of the workers and management. Donbass miners have been paid after strike action On May 29 at the mines "Shcheglovsky-Glubokaya" and No.22 "Kommunarskya" PAO "Donbass mine office", more than a thousand workers began a two-day strike because of unpaid wages. After the strikes, and prosecution intervention, "Donbass" mine office workers began receiving their wage arrears. “As a result of checks, observance of the demands by law to pay, conducted by the prosecution department of Donetsk and Donetsk region of Budennovsky at PAO “Donbass mine office,” the mine workers were paid the amount of arrears," - said the press service of the prosecutor's office in Donetsk region. Protesting workers at Vitebsk On June 1, plant workers of the large homebuilding RUE "DSK" in Vitebsk refused to start work - they had not received salaries for April. According to "Narodniya Naviny Vіtsebska", at around 7:00 am, about 100 people gathered near the entrance to the valve shop and said they would not start work until they receive wages. The Deputy Director General failed to persuade people to start work, promising that on the same day they would be paid. By 12 o'clock they had already had their money transferred to the workers. In Kherson trolleybuses stop working At "Khersonelektrotrans" on May 21, staff went out on strike. As reported by the workers themselves, mainly technical staff, plumbers, mechanics and electricians went on strike. The main reason for the protest - wage arrears for 3 months and the constant threat of layoffs. The debt at "Khersonelektrotrans" to the workers amounts to more than 1 million UAH. We also know that since January this year, the company every month is 25-30% under-funded. For this reason, workers at “Khersonelektrotrans” regularly receive less pay. Kazakh miners go on strike In the village of Bestobe in Akmola region of Kazakhstan more than 100 workers of "Western" and "Central" mines at the "Kazakhaltyn" Company on May 29 went on strike. The workers went on strike because of dissatisfaction with low wages. According to the miners, in recent times their salary has been increased by only 180 tenge. A strike on the Metro of Sao Paulo (Brazil) On May 24, in the largest Brazilian city of Sao Paulo, public transport ground to a halt. Dissatisfied with their conditions and pay, subway workers did not show up at their workplaces. Workers of four of the five branches of the Metro of Sao Paulo took part in the strike. The only line that operated is owned by a private company. In Canada, railway workers go on strike On the night of May 23, the workers of the railway company Canadian Pacific Railway went on strike. Across the country freight trains belonging to the firm stopped running. This occurred after the administration of the corporation and the unions failed to reach agreement on disputed points of a new labour contract. Spanish miners block roads Spanish miners during the strike, which began May 30 in protest against the sharp reduction in government subsidies, decided to block highways. According to Spanish police, miners blocked a a number of highways in the province of Leon. The reason for the strike was the failure of negotiations between the Ministry of Industry and the miners’ union. The government of Mariano Raho as part of the "austerity measures" in the country has reduced by 60% government subsidies for coal mining. Review prepared by the Central Commission of the CC AUCPB for Cooperation with workers and the trade union movement ========================================================== THE LABOUR AND PROTEST MOVEMENT Participants in the Zhanaozen strike (Kazakhstan) sentenced The bourgeoisie is keeping up the reprisals against the working class struggling for their rights. In 2011 in the Kazakh city of Zhanaozen, an oil workers strike began, demanding payment of wage arrears. Such a problem as the delay in wages exists only under capitalism - in the USSR this could not have even been dreamt of. For the sake of preserving its rule, capital will commit any crime, which was clearly demonstrated by the Kazakh authorities. On 16 December 2011, the Kazakh authorities opened fire on a peaceful rally of striking workers, and for a long time continued to round up activists and their relatives – and all those they managed to capture, the police tortured. The most active participants in the strike were convicted of participating in "mass disorder" and "incitement to social discord." On June 4, verdicts were read out against 37 leaders and participants in the oil workers strike. The most severe sentence was against one of the leaders of the strike - Rose Tuletaevoy. Residents and workers of Zhanaozen and Akatau are planning protests against the outcome of the trial. We, the Bolsheviks, supported and support the struggle of the proletarians of Kazakhstan. It should end with the victory of socialist revolution and the establishment of Soviet power. Here are the names and sentences of the activists. SENT TO PRISON: Tuletaeva Rose - 7 years imprisonment. Dosmagambetov Maksat - 6 years in prison. Dzharilgasinov Naryn - 6 years in prison. Zhusipbaev Kanat- 6 years in prison. Utkilov Shabdan - 5 years imprisonment. Kaliev Tanatar - 4 years imprisonment.

FOR BOLSHEVISM No 06 (111) JUNE 2012

WORKERS OF ALL COUNTRIES, UNITE! ALL-UNION COMMUNIST PARTY OF BOLSHEVIKS SOCIALIST REVOLUTION FOR BOLSHEVISM INSIDE THE COMMUNIST AND WORKERS’ MOVEMENT No 06 (111) JUNE 2012 --------------------------------------------------------------------- 59 YEARS WITHOUT STALIN On March 5, 1953, Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin died - the leader of the Soviet people, the working class, working people, oppressed and impoverished masses of the world. And no matter how much abuse and filth are thrown at our leader by the bourgeoisie and the media serving them, the truth about Stalin, the outstanding son of the Soviet people, is making its way through the mountains of slander, lies and slurs. Comrades Tishchenko and Bazderkin correctly noted in their article, that under Stalin's leadership over 20 peaceful years, illiterate and ignorant Russia had become one of the two great superpowers of the world, but over the present 20 years of "independence" and capitalist reforms, Ukraine has become a backward, impoverished and endangered the country. Only moving along the path of Stalin, under the unfading banner of Marxism-Leninism will the working masses of the former Soviet Union be able to rebuild their great country, getting rid of the annoying prefix "ex" (USSR) and be a barrier to the plans of human-hating Zionist-American imperialism, fighting for world domination, for the capture of natural and raw materials and cheap labor; unleashing new wars and bloody conflicts against countries and peoples standing in their way, and "guilty" only in that they hold oil and gas and other minerals, or dare to pursue foreign and domestic policies independent from the U.S.. The U.S., Israel and their allies in the NATO bloc are stirring up the situation around Syria and Iran. In all, the next victim of U.S. -Israel-NATO imperialism is Russia (and, hence, Ukraine, and Belarus, and the rest of the republics of our great Soviet homeland.) And Comrade Stalin reminds us: "To eliminate the inevitability of war, imperialism, must be destroyed." This is the covenant of Stalin to the international working class and working people all over the world. AUCPB ============================================= ZIONISM! HANDS OFF SYRIA! Zionist-American imperialism - the United States-Israel-NATO is preparing military intervention in Syria, with the active participation of Western countries and Arab monarchies possessing rich deposits of oil. The policy of splitting Arab solidarity pursued by the United States since the Camp David separate agreements in 1978 between the United States, Israel and Egypt, today after the collapse of the Soviet Union now prevails in the Arab world. The Arab states, especially the Persian Gulf, have betrayed their Arab allies, giving the green light to first intervention in Libya, and now preparing jointly with the U.S. military aggression against Syria. The League of Arab States (LAS) is now a servant in the hands of the United States. After the murder of Muammar Gaddafi and destruction of Libya as a single independent state, for the United States there is no more a desirable goal than the destruction of Syria and the overthrow of its leader, Bashar Assad. This is necessary for the U.S. to implement a joint plan with Zionist Israel for a Greater Middle East or in other words, a great Zionist project - the world's elite to gain control over a strategically important region of the world and its rich hydrocarbon resources, destroy the rebellious Islamic Iran, to bring to the forefront Zionist Israel in the Middle East and finally oust Russia from this region. Syria takes a clear stand against Zionism and imperialism of Israel and the United States and its expansionist plans in the region, conducting an independent internal and foreign policy, and supports the movement for Palestinian liberation, by actively pursuing a policy of Arab solidarity, in contrast to the reaction of other Arab states. Syria is a strategic ally of Russia in the Middle East, its outpost, has close ties with Iran, and was actively opposed to NATO aggression in Libya. The plan by the USA, Western and Arab monarchies, especially Saudi Arabia and Qatar to achieve outside interference in the affairs of Syria through the United Nations Security Council has failed. Russia and China on 4 February vetoed a UN Security Council resolution on Syria, thus not allowing "the Libyan" scenario to be implemented in Syria. The imperialist predators are not calming down, but are increasing external political and economic pressure on Syria, financing the internal opposition and delivering weapons to it across the borders of neighbouring countries into Syria, looking for ways to organize a military intervention without UN authorization, attempting to alter the position of Russia. In late February, Syrian President Bashar Assad issued a decree on the introduction of a new Constitution, approved at a referendum held on 26 February. On May 7, parliamentary elections in Syria. However, the Syrian government democratic reforms made remain undetected, by the so-called "fighters for democracy" and "human rights". After all, their true goal is the overthrow of the unpopular to US-Israel regime of Bashar al-Assad. At the ministerial meeting of the League of Arab States (LAS) on 12 February, it was decided to sever all diplomatic relations with Syria and to tighten the economic sanctions that were imposed against Syria in late November last year (out of 22 member countries of the Arab League, 19 voted in favour of sanctions; Lebanon voted against, and Iraq abstained – the largest trading partner of Syria.) The sanctions envisaged the cessation of air travel to Damascus, the suspension of all operations with the Central Bank and Commercial Bank of the country, freezing financial assets of the Syrian authorities, along with investment and commercial contracts with the government of Syria. Syria has also been excluded from the LAS. The sanctions by the LAS will adversely affect the economy of Syria, given that 52.5% of Syrian exports and imports account for 16.4% of the Arab neighbours. Turkey, an influential Islamic state in the region, which is an arm of NATO in the region has joined the trade, economic boycott by the Arab League countries against Syria in order to strangle her. Turkey takes the lead in applying pressure on Syria, starting from economic, political pressure, and ending with their direct support of armed terrorist organizations and receiving in their own country the leaders of these organizations. However, despite the position of Turkey, the Organization of Islamic Countries (OIC) refused to join the Arab League sanctions. The Arab oil monarchies of the Persian Gulf withdrew its ambassadors from Syria. Also, France, UK, USA, Germany, Italy and Spain withdrew their ambassadors from Syria. In response, Syria intends to withdraw its ambassadors from those European countries that have already withdrawn their diplomatic representatives from Damascus, said Syrian ambassador to Moscow on March 12. The armed forces of the Syrian opposition from the so-called "Free Syrian Army," receive an increasing amount of weapons from abroad, an ITAR-Tass source in the Russian security services said on February 24. "Supplies of small arms and ammunition for the troops, of the "Free Syrian Army" come in large quantities from Lebanon, Iraq and Turkey, but unofficially, and not through the governments of these countries", - said the source. "The range includes the supply of machine guns, automatic rifles, sniper rifles and hand grenades," - he explained. During the battle for the city of Homs, the Syrian military managed to surround more than a thousand fighters. Among the surrendered rebels, French officers were captured. Syrian intelligence believes that the secret services of France are supplying insurgents with arms and means of satellite communications. In late February, a source in the command of the Syrian army reported that in Idlib, 30 officers from Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar were arrested. In November last year, about 600 fighters from the Libyan, "Al-Qaeda" poured into the "Free Syrian army," which has its headquarters in Turkey. Syria has now realized the scenario of events that have long been developed and registered by the United States and its NATO allies, especially France, Britain and Turkey, as well as the monarchical regimes of the Cooperation Council of Arab Gulf states, particularly Saudi Arabia and the UAE. This scenario is designed with a view of what happened just recently in Libya, Egypt and other countries in the region, and adjusted for the lack of a UN Security Council resolution so desperately needed by the West. In fact, there is underway an undeclared military intervention of a number of NATO states in the region in the internal affairs of Syria. In Turkey, from a number of Syrian exiles and defectors, in addition to the Syrian National Council, a military authority has been formed – the "Supreme Revolutionary Military Council" (SRMC). The main objectives of SRMC is the coordination of the armed opposition in Syria and the recruitment of new members, both in Syria and abroad to offset Bashar Assad solely by force. Failing to get a resolution on Syria passed in the UN Security Council due to Russia and China vetoing it, the Arab monarchies, the U.S. and Western countries have drawn up an anti-Syrian draft resolution in the UN General Assembly to exert international pressure on Syria, as well as to get Russia to change its stance. The resolution was approved by the General Assembly on February 16 (with a vote of 137 "in favour" and 12 “against”, including Russia and China). With the same purpose on February 24 in Tunis, the so-called conference of "Friends of Syria" was held, initiated by the United States, with earlier pre-selected members, which was not attended by representatives of the Syrian government, and Russia and China refused to participate. At this conference there were calls for the arming of the Syrian opposition. Thanks to the decisive action of Syrian army units and the support of Bashar al-Assad, the Syrian people, the armed militants have no forces inside the country. Bashar al-Assad's opponents were driven out not only from Homs, but also from other cities. The bandit groups can only terrorize the local population, blow up passenger transport, government agencies, communications, kill soldiers and officers, organize terrorist attacks and sabotage. Humanitarian aid has been provided to help victims of the fighting in areas of Syria under the terms of non-interference in internal affairs of Syria. On March 2, in the city of Homs, freed from the militants, a humanitarian convoy of the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Syrian Red Crescent Society arrived. Iran and Russia have also provided humanitarian aid to Syria. The U.S. hawks continue to hatch their plans for military intervention in Syria. Currently the U.S. is consulting with Britain, France, Italy and Turkey, as well as with the Arab monarchies in order to prepare for military intervention in the Syrian crisis. Speaking at a regular meeting of the U.S. Senate, the head of the Committee on Armed Services, a Republican hawk John McCain revealed the true intentions of the USA: "In order to save Kosovo in 1999, NATO conducted a military operation without the formal permission of the United Nations. There is no reason why the League of Arab States, or NATO, or a coalition within "Friends of Syria", or all together could not provide the same mandate for military action to rescue Syria ... In a sense, intervention will occur - with or without us. The real question for U.S. politicians is whether of not we will participate in the next phase of the Syrian conflict and thus increase our ability to determine the result, which will benefit the people of Syria and us." In a joint article by U.S. President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron, published on March 13 in the newspaper "Washington Post", the world was told of further savage plans of the U.S.: "Together with our partners we will continue to tighten the noose around Bashar Assad and his entourage, and also work with the opposition ... on a plan for the transition period, which begins after Assad steps down from power." The development of the situation around Syria depends on how much Russia occupies a solid and strong position. Bashar al-Assad, in one of his speeches, has rightly remarked that "Russia’s support is strategic... There is not one price that can be offered to Russia for abandoning Syria and its role in the region. If Russia loses to Syria, then this would mean its withdrawal from the entire Middle East." Russia supported the appointment of former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan's special envoy to the UN and the Arab League on the Syrian crisis and had a fruitful meeting with him. Damascus has also stated its readiness to cooperate with the special envoy of Kofi Annan and agreed with his proposals for the settlement of the Syrian crisis. Russia refused US demands to break the contracts for the supply of arms to Syria. Russia expressed its readiness to agree on a UN Security Council resolution on Syria, taking into account the five principles of LAS, excluding any external interference in the internal affairs of Syria, said on March 12, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. For its part, the United States and Western countries are taking active steps to change Russia's position to have a free hand for intervention in Syria. Position of AUCPB on Syria: We support the leadership of Syria in the face of President Bashar al-Assad and the Syrian people in their difficult struggle for independence and sovereignty of Syria, for unifying Arabs! We demand that the Russian leadership take a firm position on the inadmissibility of any external interference in the affairs of Syria and provide Syria with full support! We call on all peace-loving forces, states and peoples of the world, independent from implementing U.S. policy, to support Syria in its confrontation with Zionist-American imperialism, which is anxious to win and conquer the world! CC AUCPB =============================================== STATEMENT BY THE BUREAU OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE AUCPB OF BELARUS AND KALININGRAD REGION IN CONNECTION WITH ANOTHER ATTACK BY THE IMPERIALIST WEST ON BELARUS As has been noted in the materials of the AUCPB, in Belarus, as well as in other former Soviet republics, after the violent destruction of a great country, power was seized by the bourgeoisie and a bourgeois system established. In the first years after the counter-revolutionary coup d'etat, the helm of the Belarusian government was headed by the grouping of S.Shushkevich, representing the interests of the most reactionary section of the bourgeoisie - the comprador-oriented to the West. Belarusian nationalist circles, the spiritual heirs of the collaborators of the Second World War, and embarked on an uncontrolled attraction of Western capital into the country and the separation of Belarus from Russia. Under pressure from the Belarusian nationalists, everywhere paperwork was transferred over to Belarusian language, and about the Russian language in the 1994 constitution of the bourgeois was not even a mention. Government agencies began flying the white-red-white flag and the “Pogonya” (Pursuit) coat of arms established, which in 1943 was approved by the Gauleiter of Belarus, Wilhelm Kube. Under these symbols, traitors of the Belarusian people together with the Nazi occupiers destroyed thousands of Soviet people. Of course, the people were ripe with resentment at such openly traitorous policies that affected historical traditions, and for good reason for the heroic struggle against the German fascist invaders during the Great Patriotic War, Soviet people were called Belarus the "partisan republic." Dissatisfaction resulted in mass demonstrations with red flags, headed by activists who led the leftist organizations. But special activity was shown by the Belarusian Bolsheviks, who organized an initiative group, which gathered thousands of signatures for making Russian language recognised as a state language, and against pro-fascist symbols were for an alliance with Russia. These signatures were sent to the Supreme Soviet- the parliament at the time - and to the President's Administration. The situation in Belarus has changed dramatically after his victory in the presidential election in 1994, the protege of the national bourgeoisie, A. Lukashenko. On May 14, 1995 on his initiative, despite the wildly-frenzied resistance by the pro-Western opposition, a national referendum on giving the Russian language state recognition was still held, along with the introduction of new state symbols and support to the government policy of alliance with Russia. As is well known, the vast majority of the Belarusian people responded positively to these questions (from 75 to 83%), which was a serious legal basis for integration with the Russian Federation, and by April 2, 1996 in the Kremlin, a treaty signed establishing the Community of Belarus and Russia, and a year later - a Treaty on the Union of Belarus and Russia. From that time onwards, Alexander Lukashenko became no longer favourable to the West. With regard to the socio-economic system, it basically has not changed: it was bourgeois and remains bourgeois. Moreover, it was under President Alexander Lukashenko that private ownership of the means of production was finally legislated, as reflected in the Belarusian laws and Constitution of the Republic of Belarus in 1996. We, the Bolsheviks, as loyal Marxist-Leninists, are implacable opponents of private property over the means of production. Therefore we were, and we still stand opposed to any bourgeois reforms in Belarus, the development of the capitalist road and the privatization of state property acquired on the backs of the working people under any pretext. However, we note that in Belarusian capitalism there are some moments, according to which the bourgeois development of Belarus, is meanwhile somewhat different from the development of capitalism in other former Soviet republics. Firstly, in the republic there is still a considerable amount of public property (although it has long been working under the laws of the capitalist market), while the share of foreign ownership in the country's economy is quite small. Meanwhile the government, controlled by President Lukashenko there is no mass sale of tidbits in the form of failing state-owned enterprises, although recently at a meeting of 30.03.2012, he publicly stated that for the best price, any public entity can be privatized. The intransigence of the Belarusian leader brings about fury in the imperialist West, which would like to uncontrollably dominate our country. Here is the real reason for the "human rights violations in Belarus" that haunt Western politicians. All the attacks by the West in terms of lack of democracy in Belarus in their understanding, it's just demagoguery. After all, the West closes its eyes on medieval orders which exist in the countries under their control, such as in Saudi Arabia. The Western policy of sanctions against Belarus in order to put her on her knees is not new and has been going on for a long time. Especially zealous brutal sanctions against the Republic of Belarus by the West began to swing in action since 2004, demanding that the Belarusian authorities refuse to hold a referendum to allow Alexander Lukashenko to take the presidency for a third time. We Bolsheviks are against all forms of bourgeois rule, including the president with any expiry date, and we have always said that the best president for the working people is Soviet power. However, we are against and blatant interference of reactionary circles of world imperialism in the affairs of a sovereign state, which is the main purpose of their sanctions -to place as head of state one of their own puppets, such as in the Baltic republics, Georgia, etc. As is known, the activities of communist organizations in the Baltic republics is prohibited by the laws, but the veterans of the Nazi forces since the last war peacefully march on the cities of the “democratic Baltic states”. Such outrages in Belarus today is simply impossible. In this example, in a mirror reflects the cynicism and arrogance of the "democrats" of the EU and the U.S.A.. With regard to the current Western sanctions against Belarus, the formal (!)reason for them lies in the following: On December 19, 2010, on the day of the presidential elections, in the centre of Minsk a riot took place. Several thousand pro-Western opposition leaders gathered on October Square and marched through Independence Avenue to the government building. When the protesters (according to the opposition, they were provocateurs) began to break down the door of the building, riot police dispersed the rally. As a result, about 600 people were arrested, and many of them were prosecuted. Among those sentenced to prison terms were former presidential candidates Statkevich, Andrei Sannikov, Vladimir Neklyayev and Dmitry Uss (the last two candidates in 2011 were released, and Andrei Sannikov, whom the West would like to see as a Belarusian Saakashvili, was released 14/04/2012). The position of the Bolsheviks in relation to the Belarusian bourgeois elections have been repeatedly brought to the attention of the public: we did not participate in elections with no choice, because under the domination of the bourgeoisie, the route to the heights of power is only open to stooges of the bourgeoisie, and the workers' votes are used only to legitimize the power of henchmen of the bourgeoisie. However, observers from the AUCPB were to the polling stations in order to gain "first-hand" information about the electoral process. According to our observers who were present at the counting of votes, there can be no doubt about the victory of Alexander Lukashenko in this election. We can only say: once again the truth was confirmed - the bourgeois propaganda machine in brainwashing the workers, work fine, and they go to the polls and vote according to the specified program. The only question that can be asked in this case is whether the data released by the Central Election Commission of Belarus differs from the actual number of voters who voted for the incumbent president, though, of course, this difference could not significantly affect the outcome of the elections. Thus, the demands by the Western paid flunkyist opposition to review the results of the last in December 2010 presidential elections were completely groundless. As for the "innocent lambs" of the former Belarusian presidential candidates, who the West are crying so much over, we should remember that it was Statkevich, using the provided air time on television, long before the elections called on people to come on 19.12.2010 by 8pm (the closing time of the polling stations ) to October Square in the capital, making threats to the incumbent president (according to objective Western analysts, in any of their own countries for such actions, Mr. N. Statkevich would have been arrested during his exit from the TV studio). According to official media, unbiased surveillance cameras recorded the moment, when the same N. Statkevich came at the appointed time onto the square and called on the assembled crowd to "go to the presidential palace," but the other candidate A.Sannikov convinced everyone to go to the Government Building and "to enter the building ". He "followed the prepared by foreign experts and approved script, made a sensational announcement: "Lukashenko's regime has fallen, a government of national salvation has been formed, which includes the presidential candidates." And later began the breaking of windows and doors at the Government building. These video frames bypassed all the world's media. It is unlikely that for such a thing to happen in vaunted Western countries that anyone could have any doubts about the cruelty of their own law enforcement agencies and courts. For example, the channel «EURONEWS» at the time clearly demonstrated to us how the police brutally massacred in more "harmless" situations (with no attempt to storm government offices), were sadistically beaten the organizers of "Occupy Wall Street!" in New York, the mass injuries inflicted by police upon activists of protest actions in order to disperse them in London, Berlin and Madrid. One of our familiar American activists of the protest movement had been almost landed in jail for 4 years just because he appeared on the square in New York with an unregistered megaphone. In the disturbing evening of 19.12.2010, we saw how in Minsk for a long time was spent trying to carry out the scenario of an "orange revolution" planned by Western intelligence, like it was in Yugoslavia, Georgia and other countries. The aim is the same: to make of Belarus an obedient puppet of the West, to tear her from Russia, and that's why most of the opposition candidates advocated the abolition of the results of All-Belarusian referendum on giving the Russian language equal status with Belarusian, to abolish fascist symbols and integrate with Russia. That's how the candidates "from the Belarusian people," planned to crush the will of the people on whose behalf they were trying to serve. From the first days after the dispersal of the flunkyist opposition, its leaders launched its "duck" about a provocation organized by the intelligence service, allegedly smashing doors and windows at the Government building. However, in the scrollable frames of the riot, you will not see at any point where someone tried to stop the rioters, in fact, the whole crowd whooped approvingly at each blow of a shovel or sharp instrument. And now in the opposition press is almost gone complaints about the provocation, leaving only the groaning of the brutality of power and mournful sound of Western puppeteers uniform demands for the immediate release of "hostages of the dictatorship." By the way, even such an experienced functionary of the pro-Western opposition as S. Kalyakin, the former leader of the Belarusian Communist Party (PKB) admitted: "... I think the blame for what happened on October Square lies not just with the authorities but also with those who organized this event» (“Comrade” № 5 (710) on 12.21.2011.) The second formal (!) reason for the unleashing of the anti-Belarusian campaign by the West was the execution by firing squad by the Belarusian authorities of Dmitry Konovalov and Vladislav Kovalev who were convicted for the attack on the Minsk underground on April 11, 2011. The strongest attack of hysteria swept across the Western media after the president of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, despite the pressure exerted on him, refused to pardon these two criminals, who according to the verdict of the court had carried out a cruel bloody deed. The Statement by the Bureau of the Central Committee of the AUCPB for Belarus and the Kaliningrad region on 04.13.2011 in connection with the attack was published in the newspaper "Vperyod" in April of that year. In the final part of the statement it noted: "The issue is this: despite the fact that the legal and judicial machinery of the state will fulfil its task: the perpetrators of this dastardly crime will be named, they will be convicted and will be punished, but out of the examination of bourgeois Themis will be criminal the capitalist system - the main culprit for all troubles, bestowed upon modern Belarus and other former Soviet republics. Only after the elimination of this evil, can Belarusian workers live in complete peace of mind and be confident in their future." Our position remains unchanged at the present time too. But we can not remain indifferent to the unrepentant brazen actions of the imperialist circles in the West to implement their dictates in relation to the Belarusian people and the independent Belarusian state, blasphemously using the tragedy in Minsk subway. In March of this year, official statements on behalf of the Western European countries condemning the "execution of the innocent Konovalov, D. Kovalev," filled the airwaves, a sense of "deep sorrow" and "shock" expressed by the head of the Council of Europe, the European Parliament and PACE. "Konovalov and Kovalev have been convicted, despite serious doubts about their role in this tragic event," – declared Martin, chairman of the European Parliament, adding that the conduct of the judicial process did not meet international standards. Chairman of PACE, Petros Efthymiou accused Belarus of an absence of justice in the trial. Western "humanitarians" their "deep sorrow" and expressed the fact that in Belarus the death penalty still exists, which remains the sentence for the bloody crimes. In this case, the upper echelons of power in the West ignore the fact that the in favour of retention of the death penalty was expressed by the overwhelming majority of people in Belarus in a referendum, i.e. in this case we see in this issue that we are dealing with insolent call by the West to trample upon the will of the people. As is known, in international law there is a norm which requires from everyone strict implementation: only a court may decide who is guilty and who is innocent. But the leaders of Western countries and organisations in the EU ignore the rule of law and therefore it seems, to achieve a goal, in their opinion, anything and everything goes. What also causes disgust is the fact that in their statements, western politicians do not even mention the victims of the terrorist attack that killed 15 people and injured and maimed over 500 people. In this case, Western leaders talk a lot about morality. How can they talk about morality and ethics, if the plans of their "humanitarian interventions" killed hundreds of thousands of women, children and elderly in Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq and Yugoslavia? According to the Belarusian media, the "investigative process was transparent. It was attended by members of the FSB, the staff of the Israeli Mossad and Interpol. They had at no stage in the investigation no raised suspicions and questions. From the very first interview, everything was filmed on audio and video." The objectivity of the investigation was confirmed by the Secretary General of Interpol Ronald Noble, who visited Minsk. He described the incident: "This is definitely really a terrorist act. It was revealed so quickly and efficiently thanks to the professionalism of Belarusian law enforcement agencies, technology development and high level of cooperation with other countries." From the first minutes of the interrogation to the end of the investigation, neither Konovalov, nor Kovalev denied the fact that they prepared and committed the crime, and during the investigation gave a detailed account of all the details of its preparation and clearly showed what they were doing. And video footage from the courtroom shown on Belarusian TV depicting the absolute calm behaviour of both prisoners only serve to reinforce that innocent people behave differently: they are silent, they protest, they appeal to the public and all of their behaviour tends to prove that they are not guilty. One can only wonder at the arrogance of Western politicians, who in order to achieve their aims, take under their protection criminals convicted by the court whose guilt was proven at an international level. Therefore, we can not but agree with Belarusian TV regarding the "humane" measures of the West: "The European Union imposes sanctions against our people for the fact that it protects itself against terrorists and murderers. Liberal Europe has stood not on the side of the victims of the terrible terrorist attack in the subway, but on the side of terrorists." But at home, in their own countries, Western Themis do not really stand on ceremony with such criminals. For example, recently told the international media reported to the community that in Japan three people were convicted and had been hanged, and the United States, where today the death penalty is legalized at the federal level and is part of the penal law in 35 states where each year they are among the top five countries in which the most executions are carried out. And no country from the imperialist bloc is in the least perturbed by this issue. From all the above, the following conclusion: even formal reasons made by the West to justify its policy of diktat towards Belarus are fictitious and do not hold water. And yet, despite everything, the West intensifies its attack on Belarus. The following wave of pressure began after the May 2011 trial of the main organizers of the riots in central Minsk on December 19, 2010. By decision taken in Brussels on May 23, 2011, the Council of the European Union expanded the list of Belarusian officials prohibited from entering the territory of EU Member States to 188 people and whose European assets have been frozen. On June 20 of that year, the European Union first imposed economic sanctions against a number of Belarusian companies and imposed an embargo on arms trade with official Minsk. After that, the United States joined in a campaign of pressure on Belarus, demanding "the release of all political prisoners". On August 11, 2011, the U.S. State Department announced the expansion of the list of economic sanctions against the Belarusian leadership. The fresh sanctions have affected four Belarusian state-owned enterprises. Among these were a manufacturer of fertilizers "Grodno Azot (Nitrogen)", "Belshina", the manufacturer of automobile tyre, "Naftan" oil refiner and "Grodno Khimvolokno", producer of fibre. These companies are controlled by the State Concern "Belneftekhim", in respect of which the U.S. sanctions have been in force. After the decision of the EU adopted in February 2012 about the next expansion of sanctions against the Belarus, a diplomatic conflict broke out. On February 28, the Belarusian authorities recommended that the head of the mission of the EU, Maire More and the Ambassador of Poland Leszek Sherepke "return to their own capital cities for consultations to bring to their leadership the firm position of the Belarusian side about the unacceptability of pressure and sanctions." Simultaneously, Minsk recalled for consultations Permanent Representative of Belarus to the European Union and Ambassador of Belarus to Poland. In response, in late February - early March, the EU countries withdrew their ambassadors from Minsk. Taking the path of escalating pressure on the objectionable countries, on March 23, 2012, the EU imposed new sanctions against Belarus, Syria and Iran after a meeting of the Council of EU foreign ministers as formally announced by the EU High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy, Catherine Ashton. The European Union once again extended visa and economic sanctions against Belarus in February 2011. To the EU's blacklist were added 12 other individuals and 29 Belarusian companies. On 29 March this year, the official website of the European Parliament published a final text of the resolution of the European Parliament, approved by the MEPs on the situation in Belarus. The final document, in particular, states that "The European Parliament strongly condemns the continuing deterioration of the situation in Belarus in the sphere of human rights and fundamental freedoms ... deplores the carrying out of the death penalty against Konovalov and Kovalev ... The EP also regrets the travel ban list compiled by the Belarusian authorities, which included some of the regime's political opponents and human rights defenders who are now unable to leave the country. The European Parliament once again calls on the national hockey federation of countries - EU Member States and all democratic countries to apply to the International Ice Hockey Federation with a proposal to once again discuss the possibility of transfer of the World Hockey Championship in 2014 from Belarus to another country." Such a frank diktat of the imperialist circles of the West against a sovereign state has forced many in the world to think and express their disagreement. Thus on April 2, 2012, the Human Rights Council of the United Nations in its resolution by an overwhelming majority condemned the use of so-called "unilateral coercive measures." In fact, this means that the policy of sanctions was condemned at the highest level. Despite the fact that the European Parliament adopted a resolution calling on Belarus to be deprived the right to host the World Hockey Championship in 2014, the President of the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) Rene Fasel said he was confident that the championship would be held in Belarus, as originally planned, however, emphasizing that the matter would be discussed at the May IIHF Congress, if the national federation will put it on the agenda. But the most effective support to Belarus was by its allies in the Customs Union. On March 11, 2012, Heads of Government of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan issued a joint statement on the inadmissibility of economic pressure or coercion against one of the states - members of the Customs Union. Of course, EU sanctions on Belarus have delivered a blow. Its economy is built so that more than 40 percent of goods are exported to EU countries. Moreover, Belarusian goods are in high demand there. Now Minsk can redirect their export flows of goods, for example, into the countries of Central Asia, where there is a need for inexpensive and quality industrial products. Belarus engineering products can be exported to into the countries of the Customs Union. CSTO member-states also supported Belarus. On April 6, 2012, at the CFM, which was held in Astana, the foreign ministers of states - members: Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan signed a declaration on the inadmissibility of the use of economic pressure on Belarus. According to the foreign ministers of the CSTO countries, such action prejudice the legitimate interests of Economic Security, which is fraught with damage to the mutually beneficial cooperation and development of integration processes on the Eurasian continent. Currently, we are close to the junction with the intrigue of the diplomatic demarche of EU ambassadors - their hasty departure from Minsk. On March 30, an EU observer reported that the ambassadors of the EU are all together to return to Belarus soon after the Catholic Easter, "If Alexander Lukashenko, during this time will not make any sudden moves." On April 18, Foreign Minister of Slovakia, Miroslav Lajcak said that it is time for the EU ambassadors to return to Belarus. "They should not be part of a political dispute between the EU and Belarus", - said Lajcak. However, on April 5, Lukashenko said that the return of the diplomats will be treated in a personal manner. And on April 17, in an interview with state media, the head of the presidential administration Vladimir Makey called the view "complete nonsense" that allowing former presidential candidate Andrei Sannikov to run for presidency along with a member of his team Dmitri Bondarenko, the Belarusian authorities are to create conditions for the return of ambassadors of the European Union to Minsk ... The European Union at the time withdrew their ambassadors, and today the reality is that we are not asking, but being asked to allow the EU ambassadors to return to Belarus. And not just requesting but demanding, and even threatened with new sanctions." In conclusion, it should be noted that the next attack on Belarus showed the cynicism with which the West in its own interests will take advantage of "local" a "democratic opposition". Being chicken fed by the West, and selling themselves off to the bone, the opposition scrambles to serve their masters, they call for new sanctions, name the names of Belarusian officials and the names of companies against whom the sanctions should be applied. In the anti-Belarusian campaign, a special zeal appears from active participants in the show's failed coup. Summarizing the above, the Bureau of the Central Committee of the AUCPB for Belarus and Kaliningrad states the following: 1.We strongly oppose sanctions, which are used in recent years with regard to Belarus and the Belarusian people, by the imperialist circles of Western countries, primarily the EU and the U.S.. 2. We believe that the economic and political sanctions by Western countries and demagogic appeals to "defend human rights and democracy" in Belarus are the main goal to bring to power a puppet government, to take over the country's economy by transnational corporations under their full control, as is the case in other republics the former Soviet Union, to tear Belarus away from Russia and to prevent the formation of any association in the former unified country. We believe that any concessions to the West in their demands to release "political prisoners" - the organizers of the failed "orange revolution" in Belarus, as well as to provide "free speech", i.e. freedom of the propaganda of the "orange revolution" can not lead to a weakening of the dictates of the imperialist bloc against Belarus. The West will never rest until it brings our country and our people to their knees. 4. We call on all patriotic forces of the republic to expose the corrupt pro-Western opposition as the spiritual heirs of the collaborators of the Great Patriotic War, as traitors to the Belarusian people as stooges of Western anti-Belarusian capital. The class approach to the assessment of events has always been and remains the main core of our political work. All of the above stated objectives are to ensure the best tactical environment to achieve our main goal - the revival of Soviet power, socialism, and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
